First wife of Rev. William Skipper of Massachusetts named Ja
Reitwiesner's AT of Sen. John Kerry shows ...
# 7550 Rev. William Skepper, b. ... [bapt. Boston, co. Lincs., 27
Nov. 1597], d. ... [before 1646]

Their child, Jane Skepper, wife of Abraham Brown of Boston, Mass, is
shown as follows:
# 3775 Jane Skepper, b. ... [bapt. Thorpe-in-the-Marsh, co. Lincs.,
9 Jan. 1634/5], d. ... [after 1682]
http://www.wargs.com/political/kerry.html
Maddison's _Lincs. Pedigrees_ gives similar scanty information on Rev.
William Skipper, showing his wife as only "..... dau. of .....":
http://books.google.com/books?id=IPcMAA ... #PPA884,M1
Another child of Rev. William and his unknown first wife was almost
certainly a Catherine Skipper, who married John Maverick and second
John Johnson of Charlestown and Haverhill (probably my ancestor by his
earlier, Maverick wife, a sister-in-law of future wife Catherine).
http://books.google.com/books?id=4YEAAA ... #PPA252,M1
http://books.google.com/books?id=5PnyCH ... 5-PA635,M1
There are a number of patron-submitted entries in the IGI for this
Catherine, most showing her born 1637 or 1637, married to a John
Johnson, and one even explicitly stating she was the daughter of Rev.
William Skipper by later wife Sarah Fisher. One IGI extracted entry
is of particular interest, however:
Old Bolingbroke, co. Lincoln
--Catherin Skepper, dau. of Willm and Jane, bapt. 1637 [is part of
this entry illegible or missing?]
As Old Bolingbroke is very close to Thorpe-in-the-Marsh, co. Lincoln,
where daughter Jane had been baptized two years earlier, I think it is
safe to assume that Rev. William's first wife was named Jane as well.

Re: First wife of Rev. William Skipper of Massachusetts name
What in the world is Reitwiesner's AT of Sen. John Kerry? Who compiled it,
who researched it, and who commissioned it? Does it happen to include his
German Polish Jewish grandfather? If not I'm not particularly interested
in what it has to say.
Kerry is the man whose grandfather was a German/ Polish Jew, who could care
less and couldn't even say so straight out. First thing that clued me in
that this man probably can't tell the truth about anything to save himself
and lacks the emotional capacity for leadership, all of which was borne out
in his campaign.
I wouldn't trust genealogical information even associated with John Kerry.

Re: First wife of Rev. William Skipper of Massachusetts name
I looked up the reference; AT Retwiesner compiled a sketchy outline of
Kerry's history, on a single web page.
http://www.wargs.com/political/kerry.html
He does include full information on the Polish German Jewish grandfather,
which he got from the people who researched it, which contributes immensely
to the credibility of his site. John Kerry had nothing whatever to do with
any part of it.
Unfortunately the information is extremely sketchy, gives no sources, adn
includes no notes.
Most of the sources mentioned here are unreliable and give little
information. IGI is hardly a reliable source of information - except where
it extracts from local records.
Is that what is meant by "IGI extracted entry"?
If so, maybe this is the correct couple and child, and maybe it is not.
There is reason to wonder, but it is completely inconclusive. Nevertheless
I'll add it to my notes.

Dear Tim ~
I have a personal interest in Senator Kerry's ancestry, as we both
descend from the colonial governor, John Winthrop the Elder. My
Winthrop line comes through my great-grandmother, Avyette (Taylor)
Richardson.
As an aside, my direct male line ancestor, Amos Richardson (c.
1618-1683), first showed up in records in America in 1639 as a witness
for a deed for Governor John Winthrop the Elder. Amos was subsequenty
a life long friend of Governor John Winthrop the Younger, who
eventually induced Amos to leave Boston and move to Connecticut. I
get the impression that Governor Winthrop the Younger was a very
decent person and quite intelligent. As for Amos, I've found him
called "honest Mr. Richardson" in at least two private letters. A
good trait - honesty.

Winthrop line comes through my great-grandmother, Avyette (Taylor)
Richardson.
My most interesting shared ancestry with Kerry came in through his
great-grandmother, Elizabeth (Mason) Winthrop, who was an agnate
descendant of my ancestor, Maj. John Mason of Pequot War fame (my line
from Mason is through his daughter Elizabeth, wife of James "Black
James" Fitch, the "great land pirate," mother of Jedediah Fitch [m.
Abigail Coffin], grandmother of Beriah Fitch [m. Deborah Gorham],
etc.).

Mr. Amos Richardson, along with Maj. William Hathorne, was an assignee
to John Gifford, as well, an apparently pursued debts formerly owed
Mr. Gifford after Gifford had returned to England.

Of course, the other thing that's very good in the way of proof is the
tombstone of this Catherine (Skipper) (Maverick) Johnson, which states
she "died August ye 29, 1708 & in ye 70 year of her age." This
computes to a birth right about 1637 or 38, nicely confirmed by the
Parish Register of Old Bolingbroke, Lincs.

William Reitweisner's genealogy of Senator Kerry lists 4 members of

1690) ; #937 Elizabeth Weld (born 1675, died 1770). These individuals
must be members of the Weld family of early colonial Massachusetts.
(The Elizabeth Welds must have good longevity genes).
Senator Kerry's opponent in the 1996 Massachusetts Senatorial election
was William Weld, then Governor of Massachusetts, a descendant of that
family. Kerry was a well-respected Democratic Senator. Weld was a well-
respected Republican Governor. The election was quite exciting as both
candidates had well-established power bases and the race was quite
close, with Kerry as the victor, retaining his Senatorial seat.
Senator Kerry and Governor Weld evidently shared some colonial
ancestry.

I don't know. I doubt it, though.

William Reitweisner's genealogy of Senator Kerry lists 4 members of
the Weld family: #3748 Joseph Weld (died 1646) ; #1923 Elizabeth Weld
(died 1715, aged about 91 yrs.) ; #1874 Daniel Weld (born 1642, died
1690) ; #937 Elizabeth Weld (born 1675, died 1770). These individuals
must be members of the Weld family of early colonial Massachusetts.
(The Elizabeth Welds must have good longevity genes).
Senator Kerry's opponent in the 1996 Massachusetts Senatorial election
was William Weld, then Governor of Massachusetts, a descendant of that
family. Kerry was a well-respected Democratic Senator. Weld was a well-
respected Republican Governor. The election was quite exciting as both
candidates had well-established power bases and the race was quite
close, with Kerry as the victor, retaining his Senatorial seat.
Senator Kerry and Governor Weld evidently shared some colonial
ancestry.
